Go to all settings and remove programs. Remove the cab you installed

I actually meant I cant install my cab. It gives me the error of not having sufficient privileges.

However I installed bsb tweaks and was able to install it now. So got my threaded mms.

Love the Rom but I am getting a massive battery drain at times. I noticed it comes from when services.exe running at or almost 100% for a long period of time. I used MemMaid to figure this out. Is there a way to reduce this? It's usually 0-10% in the idle process. Does anyone know what is causing this? I know it's suppose to just start and stop services of the phone, but it would run that high with no updating going on that I can notice. I do not have anything that takes more than 5 mins to sync because services.exe would run at high percentages for over 10 mins.

My settings are push mail for gmail, which I recently just changed to see if it would have an effect. I always have been just using an email account setup that would sync every 30 minutes.
Twitter updates every 15 mins.
Facebook every 2hrs (doesnt always seem like it)
Weather Update every 3 hrs.

boost has cdma phones you can go buy one or borrow a esn on ebay and thats how i did mines, then call and open an account with that esn, then go to sprint.com and create a profile and use the same password they give you on the boost site and the sprin site will show your boost phone, then just swap your phone using the esn from your sprint phone and boom your on.

1. What info do you give Boost for ESN and MEID number?
2. And after you give that info, why don't they say that's not a Boost phone.
3. Since they CDMA & IDEN, what towers does your phone use.

They use sprint towers for the cdma side and nextel(iden) for the walkie talkie side. you give them the esn or meid from your phone as usual, and they may or may not ask what type of phone it is, if they do you just tell them its a k1m or c290. they actually dont use 1 phone on both sides, they have the iden phones on the iden side (all start with I such as I856 or i776) and they have a few phones like the samsung rant and juno, a sanyo mirro, and a blackberry on the cdma side. But to start an account, you must first use a boost branded mobile phone, then after a day or two, you call back tell them you want to switch your phone and give them the info from your smart phone. Sometimes the first 1 or2 people MAY give you a hard time so you may have to call back till you get someone who will just do it without asking a bunch of questions, but as i said before, you never tell them its a sprint phone. you cannot bring verizon or any other cdma phones though, it must be a sprint phone, because the imei or meid must be in the sprint system. Heres a thread from hofo that will explain alot more :

dude just call @ 3am when they only have 1 or 2 reps answering phones, i swear to gawd! i did it twice and called 3 times and spoke to the same dude, you can wait a day or just a few hours for you to logged in the system, boost uses basically all of sprints resources as far as towers and systems. in others when you sign up with boost your basically signing up to sprints little brother and getting hand me down service at a discounted price

The only reason I switch to Sprint, the hospital where I work has Sprint repeater's. 7 bar signal in the ER, ICU and even the basement! Cricket will take any esn in there database, Boost should do the same. I must have the unlimited everthing plan. Fast internet was not needed, I was happy Cricket's 100kps for $5 more (Total $45.00) per month. So Sprint's 460kps not worth the extra money.

ouch $45 or more a month for internet that sux. i pay only $30 for 3g unlimited. i went to sprint website then talked to a sprint rep, they told me to stay where im at they coulndt touch the price im getting. only reason i thought of goin was better choice of phones, but cant see payin that much more than i do now.
